President Museveni told Ugandans on Sunday that repairs will fix damaged national roads. He blamed poor planning at the Uganda National Roads Authority for problems on the Mukono-Jinja and Mityana-Fort Portal highways. These mistakes are being fixed right away. Drivers can take other routes to reach these places, though they might travel farther.
Museveni praised his government for building new things in Karamoja. He pointed to paved roads, power lines, phone towers, and new factories there. He called critics who ignore these good changes people with no shame. He felt sorry for city people who drove fast on the new roads but did not see the progress.
Many Ugandans worry about road problems, including holes in major highways. The president made these comments after Labor Day events in Nakapiripirit. He asked people to look at pictures of better roads across the country.
